At Nutmeg Hare, it is always so nice to hear from my stitching friends. Here are some of the very thoughtful notes that I have received... Thank you to all of you for letting me share my love of wool and stitchery!
Dear Trudy, It's here - it's here - it's here!!!! I don't think that I have the heart to un-bundle it (yet)! Over the years I've ordered a lot of stuff online and I really can't remember the last time that I received an order that was packaged so beautifully. More often than not, my purchases look like they've just been dumped in a box or bag - I so appreciate the time and care that was taken to put my order together. And my goodness - a handwritten note! So kind :) Usually I just get a receipt with someone's initials scrawled on it. And even though I purchased this kit, I feel like I received a gift. Thank you Trudy - I wish it was possible to email a hug!!! Many, many thanks!! Pam... from Illinois Oct., 2011********************************
Oh My!
I just got the wool and I love, love, love it. I just had to order more. Plus the kit. Thanks so much for all your hard work. I cannot wait to start this project!
Deanna...from California Feb. 2011*******************
Hi Trudy,
Just wanted to let you know that my beautiful wool arrived today.....it really is gorgeous and it is so soft! Can't wait to start my next project....thanks again.
Denise...from California July 2011*******************
Hi Trudy,
Sorry I couldn't respond quicker to your e-mails... I promised myself I would not buy anymore until I'm finished with all of my current kits, I'm afraid I can not keep my promise.... Of course this is your fault as I LOVE your things... they are sooo sweet and creative! Thanks for all the detail (tell your husband it's what makes them so special)... lol!
Gail...from Illinois March 2011

I have to thank you for another beautiful design. I too am a lover of everything done by hand. I've been able to combine my love of embroidery and quilting and now embroidery and applique. It doesn't get any better than that. Keep up the great work, I look forward to every new design.
Judy...from Wisconsin Nov. 2011
*************************
Thank you Trudy. How nice to receive a personal note. The patterns I ordered are so wonderful. Especially "Will you be my friend". That one touched my heart! I have many of your patterns and only hope to live long enough to make them all! Please keep up the good work. Blessings, Karen.....from Texas Nov. 2011
******************************************
I loved all of the wools in my first order and want ALL of the others, but can only do a little at a time. I haven't tried the thread yet but hope to have some time next week to sew. I have the pieces cut out for the "Will You Be My Friend". The patterns are so adorable. Also, the wools are so cute how you have them packaged, they are so much fun to open. Thanks again and I love EVERYTHING!!
Norma...from Michigan Jan. 2012

I got my package today!!! What a treat!!!!! I never imagined I would receive it sooooo quickly. You did the cutest package ever. It really was like getting a Christmas present. I can not thank you enough! I do have one question..what kind of needles did you put in my kit. There are two of them. I would like to order some just in case I lose that one. Thank you so much for all you did!
Lyn...from California January, 2012
************************
Hello Trudy, I received the kit that I ordered from you and all I can say is WOW its amazing!!!! The presentation was beautiful and the thoughtful preparation { the buttons , everything labeled, the needles threaded, everything wrapped !} Well what can I say I was thrilled. I purchased this kit for a friend and I can't wait to give it to her. The kit was so well done that I think I will ask my friend to show me how to do it since I have never worked with wool appliqué. I think it was my lucky day to see your pattern at the quilt show [ it was Road to California ] and I can't thank you enough for all the sweet things you did to make this such an appealing presentation. Thank you again.

I just wanted to tell you that I received the kit of wool fabrics for the "Will you be my Friend?" table runner. The fabrics are beautiful and I was so impressed with your organization of the fabrics with the addition of all the buttons. So cute!

Hi Trudy,
I have been meaning to e-mail you for awhile now and am just getting around to it. I was so pleased with the kits that you sent. You really put a lot of care and attention into packing them up. They were just perfect. I was surprised that it only took about a week for them to arrive in the mail. Since it was Christmas time I thought it would take much longer. I am having a lot of fun working on them.
Krista......from NB, Canada Feb., 2012

Trudy, I received my order yesterday, and I wanted to thank
you for your nice note! Not only in the package but in the email, as well. Very sweet of you. It is obvious you
have a passion for what you do.... your packaging is
wonderful - the extras were a nice surprise as well. Thank you again.
Judy.....from Washington April, 2012********************
I received the package today and what a pleasant
surprise, everything was nicely wrapped and with little
ribbons and such it is clear you put a lot of love into your
craft. This will be my first venture into wool stitching (I
have done other forms of needlework of years), but I
saw the pattern for the Will you be my friend? on craft
gossip and I fell in love with it and had to order it and
once I went to your site I "had" to order more as well.
Love the patterns, keep up the amazing work!
Renee........from Minnesota April, 2012
*********************************
Trudy,
Just wanted to thank you for the lovely way you packaged my order. It made me feel like it was my birthday when it was not; so nice to
get to unwrap something instead of removing
stuffed in packing materials. It makes a
customer feel "special" because you took the
extra time to make them feel that way. I am
eager to get started on this project so will let
you know how it goes. Again, thanks so very
much for the extra time you took to make me
feel special.
Carol.......from Indiana April, 2012

Dear Trudy,
I thought I should let you know that my parcel
arrived yesterday and I am absolutely
delighted with it, You have gone to so much
trouble with your packaging. I have left it in
the box and ribbons to show others how
lovingly it was packed. The post was really
quick as I live
on a small island nearer to France than
England. So once again many thanks for the
parcel. Best wishes.
Pat ........from United Kingdom May, 2012

Many thanks, Trudy, for your
excellent customer service and
beautiful woolen fabric. I have
a couple of little projects to finish
after which I am looking forward
to diving into my wool project.
Chris.....from Australia May, 2012
*************************
I just got my pattern in today's mail and
can't wait to get started! Your designs are
so wonderful. I don't know why I was so
surprised at the lovely packaging! Keep up
the great work...I'll be back again and
again!
Mary from Michigan...... June, 2012

Trudy,
I just received my patterns in the mail. That
was so quick. I love everything about them.
Your personalized note was so sweet.
Thank you so much. I can't wait to get
started and I'm glad I found you.
Thanks so much!
Anita...........from Virginia June, 2012

Hi Trudy,
I just received the patterns you sent. What a
treat! You put as much thought and love into
the packaging as you do the beautiful
patterns. They arrived on an especially
challenging day and when I opened the
package it had the same effect as sitting in the
garden with a nice cup of tea (or glass of wine).
I can hardly wait to get started - I just can't
decide which one to do first.
Thank you so much.
Marcia........from Oregon June, 2012

Hello Trudy, I received my delicious package today, and
have never been more impressed with a
presentation! The soft tissue paper, gorgeous
wools with a vintage button attached (I’m a
button freak, as well), and a needle, not to
mention the handwritten note. My sweet Mail
Lady was in love with your return address
label with the sweet Nutmeg Hare on it- I told
her what was inside , and lo and behold, her
sister does wool applique! I gave her your
website, and you may have another NH friend
soon! As for me, I am putting together another
order already. You can never have too much
wool, and I want all of yours!
Thanks again, and you will see my next order soon!
Melanie.......From New Hampshire July, 2012

Oh mylanta!!! I love my kit...everything came
packaged so beautifully. I love the way the wool is
labeled...Since I could not wait to work on my new
project I called in sick to work!!! I already know the
next kit I will be ordering.

Trudy,
I received my "Christmas in August" package two
days ago and I wanted to express my happiness at
the presentation of your package ! WOW--you are
one classy lady and your products show it. I finally
took the wool out of the box today and stored them
with my "stash'. I wanted to keep reopening the box
looking in wonder at these beautiful items.
Thank you!
Marcia........From North Carolina August, 2012

Hi Trudy,
I am absolutely beside myself...your kit just arrived
and I have to say I have never seen anything so
attractively put together in all my life...talk about
quilters candy!!! You did an amazing job and your
little note is up on the bulletin board of my sewing
room. Thank you so much...can't wait to show all my
quilting buddies :o)

Trudy,
The Fed Ex man just brought your box and I am so thrilled! I
tried not to get any drool on the wool as I pulled each bundle
from the box. I didn't realize I had such good taste (of course,
you deserve credit for dyeing such beautiful wool). All the
bundles and fabric and thread and buttons are laid out on the
floor in a large semi circle around my chair where I stitch so I
can just gaze at it. I plan to leave it there until tomorrow
afternoon to get the full effect, but then my grandson will be
coming for a sleepover and it just wouldn't do to have him
playing soccer across my wool...
Thank you again for your kindnesses,
Jill......... .From Florida September, 2012

Oh my goodness- what a beautiful package arrived at my door this morning. Thank you so much. I always say presentation is so important- well you have it. I will enjoy this wool, as I am making a santa quilt. The reds are beautiful. Thanks again and have a good day.

Hi, Trudy,
Received my order yesterday . I am so thrilled with
the wool. I can't stop feeling it! Love the Valdani

much fun!
Thank you.

Trudy,
My package arrived yesterday quickly, too! and I am
THRILLED with its contents. Your wool is scrumptious - I
love the shade you call "Olde New Hampshire." Like others
have commented, your special care and time taken to wrap
the supplies and the overall presentation of your products is
certainly appreciated. I will be submitting another order very
soon. Thanks ever so much!

Good morning Trudy,
I wanted to let you know that my package arrived Friday while I was out and it was waiting on me when I arrived this morning! Loved it all!! So nicely packaged and love the little extras (buttons and needle!!). What a great way to send things! I’m sure you will be hearing more from me!

Dear Trudy,
My package arrived today! What a beautiful stitchery kit! It really put a smile on my face to open the package and see the Happy Birthday paper inside. Thank you also for the nice note on the needle card~and the needle, too. The way your kits are packaged is lovely~I love the buttons holding the wool together. It has truly been a pleasure doing business with you! Many thanks!

Oh my! I don't know how to express my sheer
delight at the thrill of opening of this box. Your
presentation is beyond compare. Your wools are
BEAUTIFUL! The extra "goodies" put a grin on my
face. I am sure I looked like the Cheshire Cat.
I can hardly wait to order again just for the pleasure
of seeing what awaits me.
But alas, where to start? I have been handling and
feeling, reading directions and I think I have
decided on "He's A Jolly Olde Soul."
Being that I have no where to shop for supplies,
never mind I would never find such beautiful supplies.
Again,
Thank you thank you,

I arrived home from work tonight to find my package waiting for me. Did you hear the oohing and ahhing all the way across the country? I will definitely be ordering again and am going to share your information with my cross stitching friends as many of the pieces use wool for finishing. My next order will include some appliqué projects too because they are too cute! I loved the quick shipping . Thanks "sew" much for a great product and great service!

Hi Trudy,
I received the kit today and I am very impressed

Hi. Trudy
I just got the treasure box! It's soooo beautiful. I love everything. I 'm going to make a penny rug, but it's hard to separate and cut out ,because these are too beautiful. So I'll put them on the table, touch them and feel happy and relaxed for a while. Buttons are cute too. I'll use them. Thank you very much for everything. Your message is warm as wool.

Hi Trudy,
I got my package today and it was wrapped so
precious I didn't want to take it all apart (but I did then put it
back together ). It's the personal touch and care that makes it
worth it to me to shop the special shops like yours ! I LOVE
the Cosmo two strand floss and can't wait to use it on the
cross stitch quilt top kit.Your business card with the needle an
thread in wool is just the cherry on top. I took a picture of
everything in my sewing box and sent it to my sewing friends ,
now I'm going to post it on facebook. Even the pattern tissue it
was wrapped in will come in handy for paper piecing. Thank
You for the great product and care you put into selling it.
Sewing is something I do with love. Knowing what I'm sewing
with what was sent with such care makes it even more
special!!

Thank you Trudy for the wonderful package. Not only were the items so

from you again real soon.

Hi Trudy,
My package of wool and threads arrived today! First off, I was so surprised it came so fast. And then when I opened the box… it was like Christmas… just wonderful! I can’t wait to get started. Your nice email and notes, shipping and products are just outstanding. Thanks so much, I will definitely be back to shop with you. And I’ll pass along your information to my fellow stitching friends.
I’m now off to finish my project with the wool I purchased with you. And then of course, choose a new project (or two)!
Thanks again!
